Competitive Advantage

keeper-red-meat-6KEEPER® Professional Technology has distinct advantages over other ASC products via FCN 450 which allows KEEPER® Professional to be delivered up to 1200 ppm with no lower limit. FCN 450 also allows KEEPER® Professional to be applied at or near neutral pH promoting a favorable organoleptic advantage versus technologies employing their chemistry at less than a 2.9 pH. Furthermore, KEEPER® Professional allows activation of concentrate resulting in substantial savings in activation chemistry.

Activation Systems

The active ingredient in KEEPER® Professional is Acidifed Sodium Chlorite that generates Chlorine Dioxide. To increase the speed of kill and effcacy of KEEPER® Professional , the pH of the solution can be reduced with any Food Grade GRAS acid to acidify the Sodium Chlorite.

Activation may be accomplished manually for low-volume batch applications. BCI offers the hands-free, low cost, non-electric AANE™ unit and the on-line activation system OLAS™ Ti for continuous injection into water streams.

Use KEEPER® Professional to Avoid Expensive Recalls.
